It's Great to Be Humble

JULIE CAMPBELL TATHAM

Odd as it may sound, being really humble makes you feel great! But expressing true humility doesn't mean letting other people walk all over you. Nor should you feel inferior—thinking that everyone else is better than you.

Being humble means, of course, not being arrogant, proud, or haughty. It means much more than that. It means knowing also you're the child of God, and that your identity is God's expression of His own qualities through you. It means acknowledging that you're completely dependent upon God for everything, and upon God alone.
